Technology is changing Indian Farms: Technology is playing an important role in driving agricultural activity.
Irrigation is also privileged by cutting-edge water management solutions that provide the farmers easy access to required facilities.
These hi-tech pumps provide water supply to all terrains that include steep slopes and undulating areas.
Drones, on the other hand, provide area monitoring capabilities to the farmers.
All new-gen farm tech are indigenous, developed by the likes of Kirloskar et all.
Water management solutions
Measures are being taken to reduce water wastage thereby eliminating water scarcity.
A simple fact that Indian farmers use 3-4 x water compared to their Chinese
counterparts is substantial evidence that water management habits is poor among Indian farmers.
Indian agriculture is predominantly rain-fed still it does not have enough capabilities to tap rainwater- 65% of the rainwater runs off into oceans.
Water scarcity will increase in the future, reports suggest, it may lead to a decrease of 40-50% per capita water availability in India.
Smart pump systems coming to the rescue
India has developed world-class water management systems through inland production to tackle water management issues.
The water table in India has fallen and there is not enough regularity in electric supply for farmers to pump water from bore wells.
These new-gen pumps have the technology to work in fluctuating or low voltage conditions, some are even equipped with chlorination technology that conditions the water before spraying.
How disruptive technologies making a difference
3-D printing, VR/AR, etc are used to design smart pumping systems. knowledge based software are used to disseminate knowledge of agri-tech
among the farmers along with govt implemented schemes.
Smart Pumps have control systems that supply water according to the required feedback of parameters from the prevalent conditions on the field.
The IoT-enabled water management systems to enable the farmers to control water supply from their mobile homes from remote places.
Agri Tech products in India are very cost-effective and durable.
Analytics and data monitoring systems are used to evaluate and observe crop parameters to ensure better agricultural output.
In brevity, India’s farm tech is providing better measures and support for sustainable growth.
Sir nice initiative
